Wow Community,

I want to say thank you for replying to my message if done so.

I overall, even minus the dumb posts about exodus in WoW, love this game. Ever since it was going to be released I knew I had to get my hands on it and play it. I have had my 2-3 month breaks here and there, well at least once a year, but yet there is nothing really that fascinating with the real world, so why not keep coming back?

I quit again back in November due to school coming up in the next semester and wanted to concentrate on it. During the fall I bought a 360 to play with some friends, but what happened? Just like they quit on me playing WoW they would never want to play anything on Live. While I enjoy the console, I am not going to blow 60$ every time a new game comes out. WoW is so much cheaper.

I want to come back because even though I wanted to quit before school got back up, I still managed to play console games just as much? I gained nothing from quitting WoW. I know now that I can manage my time with it and play the game that still remains 2nd overall for me, WoW. (1st being Legend of Zelda: Ocrarina of Time.)

So I just want to ask, do you guys think this is a good idea since I was still playing 360 games just as much as WoW? It must be my gamers nature. Thanks again and was a little bored, but have been thinking of returning for about a week now. Let me know guys. Appreciate everything.

Play if you want to play, i don't know why you need someone to tell you to come back or give you reasons to return..

If you need someone to convince you to come back i would say not to.

Lol, good point. I was just bored and was more or less trying to chat not getting an opinion. Even though I sort of did ask for one, hell idk. Anyways I am already coming back to it, but just smoking a cigarette and wanted to chat. "One love"

Oops - looks like I'm an internet dog who somehow learned how to type. What has the world come to?

If I have to make the choice between doing a 111 year old female from Mars or play WoW... I'll take WoW. Sorry to disappoint you

EVE online - the MMO that takes PVP to a whole new level. Everything you own can and will be ganked, including your boot.ini. Now give me your stuff.

Why do people need affirmation to start or quit a game?  Either do it...or don't.  It's just a game.

With the advent of WotlK, WoW is more casual-oriented than ever before. It doesn't require the insane amount of dedication that it used to, so it's easy to fit in around other things in your life, like any hobby should. I'd highly recommend picking it up again, if only to play a Death Knight. I always appreciate WoW more when I've had a nice long break.

 Sure, come back, if nothing else, just to do Northrend quests. Most of them are still kill-collect quests but in every zone there are a handfull of really interesting set pieces.

Overall speaking, the game is a bit easier now and you can solo more than before. There are still few elite kill quest chains in every zone and I found that finding people to do those is even easyer than before (on my server at least).

Dungeons all the way to 80 are less demanding and much more "fun" (depending on your taste), you need less of time commitment to do them and again, finding groups for them was fairly easy. There's much bigger focus on storytelling this time and on more ocasions you will come into contact with Arthas himself, spicing up your trip to 80.

Also many bosses (especially final ones) have some mini game, besides tank and spank tied into defeating them, so that's always fun to see for the first time.

 

If you are more of a PVP person, there's a new Batleground with siege and anti-siege weapons (still wrapping my head around that and if I like that or not) and whole new zone dedicated specifically to PVP every 2 hours. Deathknights and Paladind are still overpowered so if you plan to level with one of those you should have fun.

Deathknights in general look fun to play, but I can't say more because I still didn't play one.

 

So, that's what I can add to the discussion, seeing you here probably means you know all of that allready but if you want to discuss anything in particular from this post feel free to. I play casualy and dinged my first 80 couple of days ago, and still have 2 whole zones of quests to do before I run out of content. 

If you aren't too hardcore and plan to play some XboX games along side with WoW you should have enough content to last you untill the next major MMO release.
